Detailed technical information concerning the identification and classification of railway locomotives is presented by photographs and data tables of typical locomotives found throughout the world. A standard method of locomotive classification is described. Illustrations of equipment plans and associated narrative serve to establish the appearance and location of critical components. Start-up and operating controls located in the cab are identified. General operating notes give a brief description of the function of components and the overall means for providing motive power.
